Description
1 Carmen L. Harrell appeals from an order following our remand, again denying his sentence modification motion.

We conclude that the trial court properly exercised its discretion when it: (1) explained that the unforeseen consequences of imposing a lengthy sentence-postponing prompt drug treatment-did not frustrate its original sentencing intent; and (2) mentioned Truth-in-Sentencing in its remarks. Therefore, we affirm.
